Can I change the default post order
-
Is there a way to have the posts appear in the order you wrote them?For example, if a new blog had three posts: Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday when I surfed to the blog I’d want to see them in this order:
Monday
Tuesday
WednesdayThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool wherein the most recent published post will display on top. You cannot change this order on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. It’s designed to serve your visitors as they come to read the most recent posts and will not be inclined to trawl through hundreds of posts to locate it.
See here for the option of creating a book-like structure > http://en.support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/ Perhaps that will work for you.
Or you could use a single sticky post as an index page > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
Or you can falsify every date-stamp before publishing.

If your posts are not appearing in reverse chronological order you may have failed to set your date and timezone up properly.
You can reset your date and timezone on your blog to reflect the timezone you actually live in. The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General
Select the closest city to you in the same timezone you live in in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.If that does not rectify the post order then check post visibility on each post and see many sticky posts have you created http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
